After a short consultation with doctor Martin yanez, Tummy tuck was the procedure I was advised as it would produce the best results. But can I harvest the fat from this tummy tuck for a fat transfer to my breast?
Answer: Fat Transfer Hello,It is absolutely possible to transfer the fat harvested from your abdomen to your breasts. Keep in mind, half of the fat will dissipate therefore I would recommend harvesting additional fat from either your flanks or thighs to acquire enough volume for the breasts. Consult with your surgeon to see if you a good candidate for this procedure.Good luck!Dr. Kouros Azar

CONTACT NOW Answer: Fat transfer to the breasts for cosmetic augmentation Thank you for your question. Fat grafting to the breasts for primary cosmetic augmentation is still experimental and I would not recommend it. It is commonly performed for breast reconstruction to help contouring after implant and tissue reconstruction. In my opinion, breast implants are the way to go.You should discuss this with your surgeon and get a feel for his/her comfort level regarding fat transfer to the breasts. Some surgeons have success, but I have seen complications such as fat necrosis, contour irregularities, and asymmetric graft take.Best of luck.- Dr. Bryson Richards

Answer: Fat can be harvested from the abdomen at the time of mommy makeover for breast augmentation. Fat grafting for breast augmentation is an unconventional way to achieve larger breast size. It certainly is used but there are a number of shortcomings relative to conventional breast augmentation. Make certain you understand all these when discussing the situation with your surgeon.

Answer: Fat transfer to the breast Yes, you can harvest fat from your lower abdomen (from the tummy tuck area) to be used for a fat transfer to your breasts. You may also need some additional fat from other areas as well (thighs, flanks) to create the desired volume in your breasts. About half of the fat injected into the breasts will dissolve/shrink over time, so you want to be sure you have enough fat to obtain the look you want.Best wishes,Dr.Bruno

Answer: Fat transfer to breast Dearab419Breast enlargement and shaping by fat transfer is one of the techniques available for breast augmentation. It can be done with the fat from your abdomen at the time of abdominoplasty. Like any procedure, it has its benefits, limitations and risks. The amount of overall increase in breast size per surgery is significantly less than a breast implant but it is an effective technique for small augmentations per surgery.
